England's hopes in the final Test suffered an early blow on day four at Edgbaston, as bowler Mohammad Abbas struck twice in the very first over of the innings.

Both Ben Duckett and Emilio Gay were dismissed, leaving the home side on 2-2 as they began their pursuit of 130 runs needed for victory in the deciding match of the series.

Losing two wickets before the innings had barely begun puts additional pressure on England's remaining batting order to steady the chase. No further details on the match situation beyond this opening passage of play were provided in the report.
